Default Re: M/t radial problem

Dennis, I have heard of someone wrecking a car due to "radial wobble". Most say it's cured by stiffening the shocks.

My Hoosiers did it at 16 PSI but not at 12 PSI. Never did it once with the bias ply.

Default Re: M/t radial problem

I had no idea this was such a common problem. I did stiffen the rear shocks a bunch and it helped enough I could get a full pass but was still a white knuckler. I have the front end way loose with all the usual weight transfer tricks and am thinking that may be half the problem. My car has not got a bunch of power so maybe a lot of transfer wont be needed to keep it happy. Maybe a set of stock coils instead of the moroso springs?? I took off the 90/10 shocks and tryed some 50/50 and made no difference at all.
Thanks for the help.

Talking Re: M/t radial problem

I found a cure for the problem........if it scares you bad enough the bias will be just fine

My Hoosiers completely stopped that when I went to wheels an inch or so wider than the tread. Not one wobble since. They hook better with more air and MPH better also.
